U.S. TOUR WITH NO DOUBT KICKS OFF MAY 16THSwedish quintet The Sounds have just been confirmed to perform the first single, "No One Sleeps When I'm Awake," from their forthcoming album, CROSSING THE RUBICON on "The Late Show with David Letterman" on June 15th. The irresistible song, powered by attitude, ambition, and adrenaline, will go for adds at alternative radio on May 11th. Due to the overwhelming demand on the band's MySpace page and message boards, the band recently kicked off a headlining tour of the States beginning April 27th in Boston, MA, before embarking on a 3-month summer tour as support for No Doubt.

The Sounds' new album CROSSING THE RUBICON, due out on June 2nd via Original Signal Recordings, follows the trials and tribulations of a tight-knit group of friends that went from playing small clubs in their hometown of Helsingborg, Sweden to entertaining legions of fans around the world. From the romantic combat of "My Lover" to the irresistible insolence of "4 Songs & A Fight," from the bittersweet "Home Is Where Your Heart Is," to the infectious chorus of "Beatbox", CROSSING THE RUBICON is a stunning combination of beautiful melodies, soaring guitar riffs, and boisterous beats, set to the backdrop of the highs and lows of human nature. The band, along with respected producers Adam Schlesinger, James Iha, Matt Mahaffey, Jeff Turzo, Mark Saunders and Tim Anderson produced CROSSING THE RUBICON.
